Why This Package Saves You Money (Not Costs It)
Most DIY services advertise a low upfront price, then surprise you later.
This package already includes core filing costs many platforms exclude:
• NY Articles of Organization filing fee: $200
• Certified Copy: $10
• Expedited processing: $50
• Certificate of Publication: $50
⚠️ Mandatory Publication Warning
New York law requires PLLCs to publish legal notices in two newspapers for six consecutive weeks.
Typical costs:
• NYC: $1,500–$2,000
• Other counties: $500–$1,500
DIY platforms often fail to disclose this until after checkout, and many lock you into recurring “registered agent” fees of $300 or more per year.
Here, everything is disclosed upfront. No fine print. No surprises.
Why Clients Choose Us:
- Speed: 24–48 hour turnaround time.
- Expertise: We navigate licensing and compliance issues every day.
- Protection: Avoid rejected filings, unnecessary recurring costs, and compliance mistakes that could jeopardize your license.
- Tax Deduction: Your flat fee is fully deductible as a qualified business expense.
